MAKOSH is a dizzying aerial theatre performance created and performed by Polina Shapkina that takes the audience on a surreal journey through the human psyche\, exploring what happens when we bury memory\, repress pain\, and refuse to face our inner darkness. Bunny Bunny\, a one-woman clown show by Nora Kelly Lester\, is an absurdist romantic nightmare comedy about landlords\, ex-lovers\, and hotel soap – a riotous\, heartfelt exploration of what it means to hold it together while everything’s falling apart. As part of Cairde’s Artist Development Programme\, Unveiled offers a unique opportunity to experience four brand-new works-in-progress by Ikenna Anyabuike (Theatre)\, Amir Sabra and Laura Lundy (Dance)\, Angelica Santander (Clown/Theatre)\, and Kyle Conlon\, Nell Garcia and Dylan McGloin of Know Promises (Theatre). \nSee brand-new work blending immersive visuals with acrobatics by Cikada Circus in their unique geodome venue at Hazelwood House on July 8th and 9th\, or traverse a trail of Wandering Voices where multidisciplinary artists explore the theme of ferocity and resilience through spoken word\, music and performance co-curated by Chandrika Narayanan Mohan and Patrick Curley.
